Manually configuring LLT over UDP using IPv4

Last published : Jun 11, 2026
The following checklist is to configure LLT over UDP:
  • Make sure that the LLT private links are on separate subnets. Set the broadcast address in /etc/llttab explicitly depending on the subnet for each link.
  • Make sure that each NIC has an IP address that is configured before configuring LLT.
  • Make sure the IP addresses in the /etc/llttab files are consistent with the IP addresses of the network interfaces.
  • Make sure that each link has a unique not well-known UDP port.
  • Set the broadcast address correctly for direct-attached (non-routed) links.
  • For the links that cross an IP router, disable broadcast features and specify the IP address of each link manually in the /etc/llttab file.
